I am trying to test, whether the <articletitle> string ends with ? (?)
or not. Below is what I've tried to define in my stylesheet (note that I've
tested Unicode value for ? as it gives error to define an external
entity ?, which I've done by declaring a ENTITY declaration in XML as
<!ENTITY quest "[#x0003F]" ><!--=question mark --> ).
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="./articletitle/contains(string(), '#x0003F')">
Are you using XSLT 2.0 and XPath 2.0? That has a function ends-with
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#func-ends-with
<xsl:when test="ends-with(articletitle, '?')">
